Who Watches the Watchmen?

Like any good systems administrator I have systems in place that monitor what is going on with my servers and network. To do that I am using OpsView Community Edition. However one thing that has always been an issue is how do you make sure your monitoring solution is up and running? I solved that today with uptimerobot.com. I simply signed up for an account and 3 minutes later I had everything set so that I got an email if my OpsView box did not respond to pings. Simple, easy and best of all free.

  1. Add the site UptimeControl.net to the article, because only they have a 3-minute site availability check interval on the free plan.
